I learned to play billiards (we only had a snooker table) at the local Boys and Girls clubs. I never associated pool with the bars and nightclubs although I did occasionally play pool in a bar. When I went night clubbing it wasn't shooting pool or gambling I had on my mind!
............a sin? What if someone is a professional pool player, not the hustler kind, the tournament kind? Should he give up his profession after getting saved? Is playing pool a sin?
no more than playing chess.

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
I know of a well known UPC church that has a nice pool table in it's rec center and a couple of bowling lanes (not in working order right now). ........
